You’ve drawn your last metric staircase! The
Magnetic Metric Staircase is a fun, visual way to help students learn to convert measurements. Simply use the magnetic pieces to mark your starting and ending measurements—then “walk” your way up or down the staircase until you reach your conversion measurement. Count the number of steps you took and multiply or divide by 10 for each one. A true time saver!

This product is fantastic for classroom instruction! I used it as a visual aid during a recent lesson on the metric system. We then left it up as reference tool after the lesson, and it has really come in handy. The kids enjoyed the foam manipulatives and I liked how the magnets on them were actually powerful enough to hold them in place! I also like the inclusion of the arrows with the operations in them. This feature truly helped my students understand how to convert units. I really do not see any flaws in this product and I highly recommend it to other teachers! Makes for a great decoration which is easy to put up and take down! ☺

Don't even think about it, just order it!My students finally GOT it when they saw and experienced this visual. Great for tactile and kinesthetic learners! I rarely fill out reviews; however, this one really impressed me!

Heavy duty magnet makes it perfect for a teacher's magnetic whiteboard. Cat and shoe pieces are heavy duty foam. This visual makes it simple to teach students how to make metric conversions. It was a complete pleasure to review this product.
